After the cold spring has passed, the south of the Yangtze River has regained the brightness of spring, and the flowers are full of flowers, and the appearance of spring is infinitely beautiful.

Compared with the beautiful scenery outside, the atmosphere inside the state city of Wu Mansion is not very good. In the study in the front yard, Wu Youliang respectfully bowed to the northwest, carefully opened the secret letter wax seal with the dagger on his waist, although the person was not in front of Enhou, he was respectful to the grass and paper sent.

But after scanning the contents of the letter, he frowned unconsciously.

"Save the King?"

What did Enhou mean by this, he actually asked him to save the pig teammate who was dragging his hind legs! If it was easy to save as usual, but this time he would have to snatch food from the tiger's mouth from the Dingbei Hou and snatch the good salary that he had already received unknowingly.

The tiger father has no dogs, although the unfilial piety of the little marquis is criticized by him, but in his private heart he has to admire his ability, that is a calm and resolute lord who is no less than the enhou. Rao has been operating in this state for many years, and he can't be said to be completely sure.

"My lord, the most favored person on the dragon chair is the precious concubine, who loves the house and Wu, and the favored Cheng dù of King Ping back then is far more than today."

The staff reminded in a whisper, and Wu Youliang, who was irritable, also wanted to understand. King Ping is as stupid as a pig, but he is a good pig. Although he has abdicated for many years, the Emperor still holds a lot of real power in his hands, and his old man's value is tantamount to adding a talisman to this pig that is consecrated in front of the Buddha.

This golden pig must be saved.

His brow furrowed even tighter, he had already made a decision.

The words are divided into two ends, in the Hu Mansion in Qingcheng, since he came back from accompanying Ayao on the swing, after receiving the news that Shen Moci had moved again, two days have passed. When he received the news that night, Lu Jingyuan had already ordered his subordinates to investigate. But Shen Moci also knew that this was her last chance, and she did her best to keep it secret, so that the secret guard, who had always been unfavorable, didn't find out anything for a while.

"The subordinates are not doing well, and they are all punished by the Hou Ye."

In the guest house, Lu Ping followed Ah Yao's new promotion, and the secret guard who wanted to show himself well knelt on one knee, his face full of heaviness.

Merit should be rewarded, mistakes should be punished, the little marquis has always treated everyone equally, of course, a silly girl does not count.

"After relieving the light work, surround Qingcheng...... The mountain road outside runs ten round-trips. ”

Qingcheng is surrounded by mountains, and his original intention was to let the dark guard go to the side of the East Mountain to run, but who knew that the dark guard's remorse was too heavy, and he automatically understood the punishment as the highest level. Which is the longest mountain road around Qingcheng? It was the one between the valley and the gate on the same side that King Ping's men were stationed.

After giving up the order, the secret guard ran out of the city and directly towards that side. During training, he often carried a weight of fifty miles and ran for nothing. As the sun set and the new moon rose, the navy blue dark guard running alone on the mountain road was like a wisp of lonely ghosts, and then when he was almost finished, he encountered another group of lonely ghosts from the direction of the state city.

Qingcheng is rich, which attracts the envy of Xiaoxiao in neighboring states and counties, and spontaneously and consciously forms a group of thieves. But Qingcheng businessmen are not vegetarians, and if they have money, they are worried about not being able to invite a strong nursing home? Want to rob? Who's afraid of whom!

After the first few unexpected successes of the bandit group, they were soon beaten to the ground by the nursing home organized by the merchants. Seeing that the big merchants could not plunder, they locked their eyes on the small merchants and the merchants who came from the silk market every year. The local government also sent troops to encircle and suppress, but these people disappeared after hiding in the barren mountains outside the city, and they only caught a few fish that slipped through the net, and gradually the government only meant it.

The thieves hide in the mountains, and their movements are erratic like lonely ghosts, and over time they have the name of "lonely ghosts".

King Ping also knew that what he was doing was not very glorious, and when he set up camp that day, he deliberately chose the valley where lonely ghosts often haunted. The men he led were also elite soldiers of the imperial court, although they were vulnerable in the hands of the dark guards, but that was because the secret guards were too strong, and those elite soldiers were not afraid of a few scattered soldiers. King Ping spared his life, but when he knew that he was absolutely safe, he still chose to have people stationed here. He felt that he was coming to the dark, and when he met with Wu Tongzhi that day, he was still complacent about it.

Knowing that the little marquis was not easy to deal with, but Enhou ordered him to go to the soup and fight the fire, and after thinking about it, Wu Youliang finally thought of King Ping's words.

Lonely ghosts?

It seems to have nothing to do with the state government soldiers.

That's it!

Lu Jingyuan has always believed that there are not many soldiers, and he did not bring many people to Qingcheng this time. The return journey was imminent, and most of the men were transferred back to the city by him, and there were only three or two sparrows left in the valley. Wu Youliang had already found out the situation in advance, and said in his heart that God would help me, and he would instigate these thieves in three or two clicks.

The night is dark and the wind is high, it is the time to rob the house, the time and place are all ready, but when it comes to people and this, they are recognized by the temporary punishment of the little marquis.

Quietly following the group, sensing that something was wrong, the secret guard didn't care about anything else, and it didn't take long to get to the dock. The last step in recruiting military salaries was to count and load the conscripted silver taels on the ship, and most of the secret guards had been busy with this matter for the past two days.

This kind of porter-like, unskilled work really makes them suffocated when they are used to seeing strong winds and waves. I heard that someone was stirring up trouble, and the eyes of the young man in the water under the moonlight showed the green light of a wolf, and he almost howled at the moon.

"At this time, the Hou Ye should rest, and it is inconvenient for anyone to disturb him."

"No, Master Hou must not have rested, he still has to teach the little junior sister kung fu."

"That can't be bothered."

After a few short sentences, they had taken off the loose coarse cloth robes they had worn when they worked outside, revealing the neat robes that had hidden blue inside.

"Let's go."

What would be the effect of a smothered dark guard getting into a fight? These lonely ghosts hidden in the mountains even have to be carefully avoided by King Ping's people, not to mention these secret guards who have beaten King Ping's people to the ground. Spirited up, the general secret guard rushed forward with his bare hands, beating this group of lonely ghosts who have been the party for many years to cry and cry for their mother.

"Don't ...... Don't fight, we just heard that there is a very important person in this valley, and tying him up will allow you to wash your hands in a golden basin, and you will not be able to enjoy the glory and wealth in this life. ”

"Listen to whom?"

"Him!" The thief, who had been beaten into a pig's head, pointed to a man next to him.

"I also listen to others."

"Someone else?"

"It's him!"

The soldiers are not expensive, and the manpower brought by the little marquis is all proficient in all eighteen kinds of martial arts, and torture to extract confessions is not a problem. After a few words, with his fists, he quickly found the crux of the problem.

"A beggar in the city?"

Without further ado, they immediately split into two ways. Some of them stayed in the valley and strung these thieves into sugar gourds and escorted them to the Qingcheng Mansion overnight. The others rushed to Qingcheng and found the beggar from the land temple. This beggar A-Yao had also seen the same one who beat Song Qinwen into a pig's head with a bunch of little beggars in front of the Shen family that day. Although he begs for a living, he is not so despicable, and the secret guard will tell him all when he asks.

"It was the beggar over there in the state city who found the small one, gave the small one a whole ingot, and ordered the small one to pass the message to the group of lonely ghosts. A few officials, the little ones know that you are good people, and they would rather take less money for themselves than lose the people of Qingcheng, and some small things will be said clearly. Those of us who should be called Huazi, we can't hear anything in the market, and the government sometimes has to rely on us to inquire about something. As far as I know, the flower child in the state city has a good relationship with the prefect. And the words under the ingots look like they were taken out of the official name, and ordinary people don't have that thing. ”

Same as the prefect? That's interesting.

didn't entangle with the beggar anymore, the secret guard went directly into the Hu family, and when he quietly climbed over the wall to the guest house, he saw that the little marquis under the osmanthus tree was teaching the Hu family girl martial arts.

Every moment of parting is precious, even if Shen Moci's movements have not been found out, Lu Jingyuan has not put much thought on it, and he is seizing an opportunity to get along with that girl more in the past two days. Ah Yao went to the shop, and he followed to point out the repair opinions; Ah Yao reads, and he personally guides him; Even Ah Yao went to the academy once every three days, and he temporarily decided to give lectures at the academy.

Although he is not as weak as the crown, he is under the tutelage of Master Kukai and he is well-read and memorized, and even Gu Shanchang is impressed by his knowledge. showed his real skills, and his amazing talent was also admired by the students of the academy. Song Qinwen is a celestial Qu Xing? What is that little marquis! The students of the academy are not stupid, they know why the little marquis is like this, and they inherit the love of the Hu family's girl.

In this way, Xiao Hou Ye stepped on a wave of former rivals again with his absolute strength, and also helped Ayao contact the weak relationship network in the previous thirteen years due to being raised in the deep boudoir.

We will be tired of being together during the day, and we will not let go of it at night. Hu Jiuling's net of heaven and earth outside Ah Yao's boudoir can prevent ordinary secret guards, but it can't prevent Xiao Hou Ye, whenever Ah Yao falls asleep, he will always appear in time in the stepping bed. Looking at her sleeping appearance with teeth and claws, only at this time, her eyes that are usually as intimidating as a falcon will exude a different kind of tenderness.

Of course, after the gentleness is over, he will become the high-flying little marquis during the day, and continue to teach Ah Yao to learn kung fu with a straight face.

When the secret guard arrived, some of the movements that needed to be close to him had already ended, and when he heard the movement by the wall, he swept over with an eye knife, and then continued to teach Ah Yao as if nothing happened.

Poor Dark Guard, rushing to the scene with a heavy harvest, can only maintain a difficult posture and hide in the trees. This will make him lose the joy of taking the position of Lu Ping's leader at all, he can see it clearly, the sky and the earth are big, and the junior sister is the biggest in the heart of the little marquis. Lu Ping followed the little junior sister, how can he talk about no future in the future.

Thinking about it until his feet were numb, the little marquis finally finished teaching the little junior sister martial arts, and when he came back after sending people back, he could finally report.

"Wu Tongzhi?"

As expected, Lu Jingyuan was not too surprised, "You go and spread the word, send those lonely ghosts to the Zhizhou Mansion and hand them over to Pan Zhizhou." ”

Zhizhou ...... Tongzhi has always been responsible for the affairs of thieves, and such a big credit was given to Zhizhou, which was simply a slap in the face of Wu Tongzhi. After listening to Xiao Houye's words, he only felt that his eyes lit up, and his heart rose with the same cognition as Lu Ping: Hou Ye is wise!
